Toyota gave its Tundra full-size pickup truck a complete overhaul this year and it is by far the most modern pickup truck in the segment. Also, its exterior styling includes many innovations that leave rivals in the dust. The new Tundra enters its next generation with powerful engines, hybrid technologies and exclusive features.
Here, we compare our new 2022 Tundra with a very close rival, the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500.
More torque and efficiency in the 2022 Toyota Tundra
This year, the Toyota Tundra comes with a choice of two engines. They are both very powerful and efficient. The new Tundra is available with the I-Force MAX hybrid powertrain that uses less fuel than its rivals. Gas prices are high, and the new Tundra is the solution.
With a fuel consumption of 13.1 L/100 km in the city and 10.1 L/100 km on the highway, the Tundra does much better than the Sierra, which uses 14.4 L/100 km in the city and 10.6 L/100 km on the highway with the 5.3 L V8.
Being efficient doesn’t mean sacrificing on performance. The I-Force Max makes 437 horsepower and 583 pound-feet of torque using regular 87-octane gasoline. This is much more torque than any GMC Sierra engine.
Many innovations inside and out for the new Toyota Tundra
From outside, the Tundra is very stylish. But these superior looks hide some of the best innovations in the segment. For example, the Toyota Tundra has the push-button integrated in the taillight to open the tailgate, which is quite useful if your carrying materials and need to pop open the tailgate with your elbow. The GMC Sierra doesn’t have this feature.
Moreover, the back window of the 2022 Toyota Tundra lets you create a full width opening so you can jump from the cab to the bed without easily. You won’t find this in the Sierra either.
Inside, the Toyota Tundra is much more refined than what you will find in the GMC Sierra’s aging interior.
The 2022 Toyota Tundra has it all, and it is backed by the legendary Toyota reliability. Come see it today! You can shop for your truck online with us. Our representatives are waiting for your call and can answer all your questions.
